So this may be a dumb question.... but here is goes. So my lipo charger charges at 650mah,,, Can I charge a battery that 450mah?? or will it EXPLODE??? thanks!

Oh the battery is a 20 C discharge rate.

I think you're saying your battery has a capacity of 450mAh and your charger has a fixed charge rate of 650mA (not mAh). If that's what you mean then that charger will normally only be safe for batteries with capacities of 650mAh or more.

You might be o.k. if your 450mAh battery specifically says that it can be charged at more than 1C. Otherwise the charger is throwing too much current into it to be safe. BTW knowing the discharge rate doesn't help you decide on what charge rate is safe .

can some one clear this one up for me, my charger can charge at 10amps my batteries say can charge up to 2c

so i have been charging at 10amps on my batteries is that bad or good? people tell me it should take hours to charge my batterys but i charge 5s in about and hour and 3s in about 30min all state charge up to 2c

Does anybody now were there is a chart with charge rates for different capacity LIPO's ? For example I think it would be convenient to able to see how many amps you would need to charge at a 1c or 5c charge rate for different MAH batteries
